"We're still here waiting, but not for too long, for a number of things.

"We're working to get to July 3 [pre-season training] with more certainty."

Fassone also made it clear that the wait was not an issue for Milan and that a deal could still happen.

"From the current market session, one still has to wait for something," he said, before adding: "It seems late, but the market has not yet officially started, there is still time to put aside what's missing."
